Abstract/Contents: | "Rutgers University scientist [scientists] provide an overview of the biology, host range, symptomology and epidemiological factors influencing the pathology of anthracnose basal rot. The papers [paper's] main points include: Anthracnose is a serious disease of annual bluegrass and creeping bentgrass, but knowledge of anthracnose biology in turf is still incomplete. Anthracnose is most severe during warm, humid weather, but outbreaks may occur throughout the year. Anthracnose is most destructive on weakened or senescent turf; low fertility, low mowing heights, drought and excessive heat enhance the disease. Activities causing wounded tissue do not appear to enhance the severity of anthracnose on annual bluegrass putting greens. Cultivar susceptibility, environment and variation in pathogen populations may play a role in disease development." |
